he picks guys he thinks he has advantages over like pavlik & pascal
Pascal went to war with Carl Froch and clearly beat Chad Dawson. He's mobile, has fast hands, and a good chin. Beyond experience, what were Bernard's obvious advantages over him?
yeah i hear what your saying but come on everyone bernard is gonna face is gonna have a youth a probably speed advantage don't mean they know how to box aswell as Hopkins
but when you look at it why did he jump at the chance to fight pascal and not dawson when dawson was champ?
i think he saw pascal as a soft touch
Dawson is a southpaw has good handspeed and good technique not easily to exploit if you are bhop
but pascal is a little sloopy at times throws wide punches and has bad stamina and is really a super middlweight fighting at light heavy so he hasn't got the size advantage or strength to bully hopkins
plus he draws more people and that means more money in bernard's pocket i can totally understand him not wanting to fight dawson in terms of the money it would generate but i truly believe he only went after pascal because he thought he was the weak link in the division
